As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.
Proverbs 27:17
We give all honor and glory to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit for the blessing of entering another year. The breath in our bodies comes from the Lord, and the purpose upon our lives is established by Him (Genesis 2:7; Jeremiah 29:11). As the Youth and Young Adult Ministry leaders, we celebrate every victory and remain steadfast through every trial, trusting in the One who is faithful in all things. With confidence and hope, we declare that we are still in the fight, strengthened by God, upheld by His promises, and pressing forward in faith (2 Timothy 4:7; Isaiah 41:10). As we step into 2026, we are embracing renewed focus and intentional growth. This year, we are committed to strengthening our unity, cultivating authentic fellowship, and developing a deeper, more personal relationship with God, not only for ourselves but our Youths and Young Adults. Our faith journey requires perseverance, and we are choosing to remain steadfast, disciplined, and fully engaged in the work God has called us to do. Looking forward, we are believing God for expansion, not only in attendance, but in spiritual growth, leadership, and impact. In the previous year, we pressed ahead in faith, standing firm on God’s deliverance and trusting the promises He revealed to us. Now, we move with bold expectation, determined to walk fully in those promises, allowing Christ to stretch our faith, enlarge our influence, and establish us in victory because “we are still in the fight.” We are sincerely grateful to everyone who took part in our Youth Sundays, outings, gatherings, and small group meetings. Your commitment and consistency continue to strengthen this ministry. We also thank God for our Pastor, Dr. Dalton Jenkins, and First Lady, Minister Jacqueline Jenkins, whose leadership, wisdom, and vision empower us to Reach, Teach, and Serve. With hearts full of gratitude and eyes fixed forward, we press on standing firm, walking in faith, and declaring that we are still in the fight.
